Style: Orchard Dressing

One of the biggest perks of living in Charlottesville is the endless amount of seasonal activities. This past weekend we made our way to Albemarle Ciderworks to try out their legendary cider (it is supposed to be the best around). While the cider was not my favorite, I did enjoy wandering around the apple orchard. They are known for growing vintage apples, but sadly the majority had already been harvested. We ended up finding one loan tree with a few apples to admire. A black sweater dress, boots, tights, and a silk scarf was the perfect outfit for an afternoon outdoors in Virginia. I stayed warm enough for the slight chill in the air, and my tights were thick enough to keep my legs from feeling too cold. Hopefully, we will be able to make it out earlier in the apple picking season next year.
